Arteta’s Transfer Targets: Summer 2024

[CannonBals]

I guess we already have Nwaneri at home too.

Have not watched a lot of Neves but followed a bit recently.
Somehow I have a feeling he is one of those players who would be able to make that transition seemlessly. He isn't fazed by the stage at which he plays already.

Also Nwaneri is more in Ødegaard mould. If anything MLS may be closer but even then still pretty different.

I would be happy with this one. But no sure after Havertz home much apitiete Arteta/Edu will have to gamble.

Easily one of the biggest talents in football for sure.

Not entirely convinced he can do the business in the Prem immediately though, so might not be the best idea to splash an obscene amount of money on someone who needs a few years to settle when you're pushing for silverware.

People never learn buying from this league

Yeah that Ronaldo guy was an awful signing for Utd.

You don't want us to sign players from the PL, you don't want us to sign players from Portugal, tell me, where do you want us to sign players from?

Joao Neves is definitely someone we should consider buying from whoever buys him next.

 

[RunTheTrap]

My choice for CM. And keep Jorginho for the experience.

Serious baller. The Portuguese Paul Scholes. I'm all in favour of this signing. Neves, Zubimendi, Bruno G, Douglas Luiz etc. Unlike the striker situation, there are enough midfielders out there who can improve our squad. There should be no reason to mess this up.

People like you never want to do anything ambitious and are afraid of failure at every turn.

You think City regret buying Dias? Monaco and Bernado Silva? PSG and Vitinha? Man Utd and Cristiano ****ing Ronaldo? You just want to sit there and call everyone overrated while playing captain hindsight towards anyone showing ambition.

Yeah, some players flop. It's part of the game. Never going for anyone in the first place will get you nowhere guaranteed.

@A_G who are we signing?

Yeah there's a lot of directions we could go in in terms of profile. I really hope we get someone who can carry as well as pass. One of the things I think we lack is a capable big space dribbler that just eats up the ground. Rice is OK at it but I'd rather he not do it tbh

Take your pick:

Take your pick:

Bruh Zubimendi will be the new Salomon Kalou, linked to Arsenal every window in perpetuity

One guy who won’t be linked as long as Arteta is here:

Philipp Lahm also played a ton of LB in his career, world class throughout. Azpilicueta also played LB in Chelsea's title winning 14/15 season.

But you know, we don't see it at the top level.

Cancelo as well, was absolutely incredible a few seasons back, if they are inverted it makes no difference.
In fact it might be slightly easier to be right footed because you are taking the ball on the inside rather than the outside, like a Tierney does for example.

Coz you're the A-M version of Fabrizio

One thing I would say is that this window is going to be a slow burner due to Euro 2024 and Copa America taking place at the same time. Might not be any new signings until late July.

What’s that 20 years ago? This is a league Das Bost and Ricky van wolfswinkle scored for fun. The top 3 are good teams. Rest are not even championship level

Spending 100 million on unproven kids from poor league is crazy. We will come up against one of those young players tomorrow
